Midtown

Midtown

Lay of the land

Midtown is the strip along Peachtree Street between North Avenue (10th Street area) and 15th Street, expanding east and west into the surrounding neighborhood grid. Geographically it sits between Downtown to the south and Buckhead to the north.

Cultural anchors: Piedmont Park (185 acres, the city’s central park), The Fox Theatre, The High Museum of Art, the Alliance Theatre, Georgia Tech, the Margaret Mitchell House, the Atlanta Botanical Garden. The neighborhood is also the city’s largest concentration of restaurants and the historical center of Atlanta’s LGBTQ+ community.

The residential housing is overwhelmingly vertical: condo towers along Peachtree, mid-rise apartments on the side streets, a small remaining pocket of pre-war single-family on Peachtree Circle and around Ansley Park. Single-family in Midtown proper is functionally extinct; anyone who tells you otherwise is showing you a house that is technically in Ansley Park or Atlantic Station.

The Midtown MARTA station is a hub. The Beltline Eastside Trail runs through Piedmont Park. Walking the neighborhood is genuinely pleasant in a way that not every Atlanta neighborhood manages.
